Dedicated frier for fries so they’re gf, but if you don’t eat meat or have any questions at all you’re screwed. I was able to see online that the frier is for fries only making it gf, but staff was NOT knowledgeable (at one of their biggest and newest locations in Chicago…), and acted super annoyed by safety questions. Plant based hot dog is vegan but NOT gf and i had to ask 5 people to confirm if the hot dog itself had gluten (it does). Every answer was “well the bun has gluten”….obviously… but shouldn’t staff be knowledgeable about the other 10 ingredients? Wouldn’t risk it!

Ordered a nudie hotdog with the manager who was able to ensure it remained gluten free. Their fries are cooked in a dedicated fryer, however the oil goes through a filtration system at night that commingles it with the oil from the chicken tenders - thus they are technically not celiac safe. As a celiac myself however, I do risk these fries on occasion and have never had an issue even though I tend to be quite sensitive to cross contamination.

The worker here told me the frys are fried in a separate fryer only for fries! He double checked with the kitchen as well and they gave the all clear other than the fact they have gluten in the kitchen so they can not guarantee. I decide to try about a handful and had no symptoms at all! I also ate a burger no bun which was good!

Lol don’t come here. They said they can’t help cross contamination and the bowls look so gross. The dogs without a bun is a waste. If you’re with a group you can come but I would never choose to. Expensive too

Online there are gluten free options. Just spoke to the employee taking orders who says nothing there is gluten free. Hard pass for me.
